This article demonstrates how to maximize the performance of waterborne acrylic metal coatings using amino alcohols as highly efficient dispersants for pigments.
While society remains years away from fully autonomous or self-driving cars, the paint and coatings industry is stepping up to best prepare customers for mobility's future.
Salt ions affect the thickness of the "double layer" around the particles. As the double layer shrinks, the latex particles can move around more easily, and the result is a lower viscosity latex.
